I have ordered a 4K monitor for my computer and I will mostly be using it to play games but I would also like to see a movie or a video of some sort in 4K. I know that not many films and videos support 4K at the moment but I know some are currently in 4K. I would like to know where I can watch 4K movies legitimately so Pirate bay does not count.

Not completely true. I'm living off the youtube movies. They're not always high quality, but there are some really interesting ones that people post to share with other movie lovers. Like me.

biosphere all it is footage of the environment and such filmed in 4k. It is very relaxing to watch the time lapses and hear the calming music in the background.

What do you have for a GPU? Handle 4k great? Hope you have awesome bandwidth without any caps! Caps are bad for 4k streaming lol
 
If you want free legit 4k movies, then I would suggest Kodi. Kodi is a program that runs all the Android boxes that people are buying. It can also be run on linux and windows machines. I use Kodi on my laptop to watch all movies and tv shows. Its something like netflix. Its all free.
Kodi is the base program, then you can install add ons simular to Netflix. The U.K supreme court has ruled it is legal to stream copy right material this way. Most people around the world have been switching to it as a enhancement to their local cable. You can use VPN's to watch blocked content or geoghrapic specific content. Once you can find the add ons or a build you like, you will be spending hours watching tv. The only down side to it is, you have to watch your bandwidth useage if you don't have an unlimited package. You also need a quality connection of 5megs and above.

I have an AMD R9 390 which is handling 4k perfectly fine for me at the moment with running games and watching videos. My internet should hopefully be able to stream 4k videos since I am able to watch youtube videos and my download speed is nice. I have yet to try out streaming 4k though.
